"Savage" Tee

Our etremely popular new t-shirt features a small white version of our Thunderbird logo on the frong and one of Eddie's favorite quotes from Wyoming mountain man Bill Atkinson on the back. After returning from Vietnam, Bill headed out to the wilderness to live a simple life. A television crew came to do a story on him and the interviewer asked why he continued to live like this — didn't he want to return to civilization? Bill's answer was as profound as it was beautiful: "Civilization has nothing to offer a man once he has become a savage".
